For those of you confused, using "X" is a branding technique. Just using the letter "X" in your brand/logo gives it a certain appeal due to it's association to various things. You could call it a psychological technique and it isn't exactly a new thing: Xerox, SpaceX, Xtreme sports, etc.

Since Jagex already had an x in their name in the first place (I wonder why...) it's easy to see why they would try and capitalize on it.

The more you know.

Oh, so they only got lucky and wasn't as smart as I thought? Thanks for making me not wonder anymore.

What the hell is it? OK, I read back and apparently it's an X? I don't see an X just a weird squiggle, but don't worry about it. It seems most people realize what you meant.
